Hello all,

I have just started with learning Python so I decided to give PyMel a
go.
I am currently creating custom meta nodes for a rigging script and I
am searching for a OO and tidy way to get info from these nodes. I
think this is called a class or subclass but I am not sure on the
terminology. So for example.

I have a metaNode with an attribute called "children"+ an int.
now I would like to something like this

myChilderenList = myMetaNode.getChilderen()


so I would like to turn a function like this below into a class (or
something similar):

def getMetaInfo(metaNode, infoType):
     if infoType == 'child':
          children = metaNode.getAttr('children')
          return children
     if infoType == 'parent':
          parent = metaNode.getAttr('parent')
          return parent



Does anyone have a suggestion on how I would approach this ?  or if
this is even possible ?
I did see the example of creating custom classes in the PyMel examples
folder. But as far as i understood that's only for creating new
objects.

Thanks,
Red
